I'm not known for writing poems, because this is not a site for writing poem, this is a site for writing sexual experience if you haven't noticed !
I never bothered to read the poem, but this critique seems pretty good, and confirms my initial decision to skip the poem ...Quote:

Feel free to explore what you want, but if you try to impose your childish will on others, that's what makes you the most ridiculed person on the forum ! :miao:Quote:

You are somewhat prone to exaggeration wilisno, but at least you now say I'm free to explore what I want, so I think we are making progress.Quote:

A Chinese Poem any one ??
Yes, there are human and there are animals on this forum, like the fake lion, Monkey, Toad and Girraffe. And yes, do not confuse one with the other, and use the pronoun " we " to represent them ! :miao:Quote:

Hi there Mr Crash and Burn, the subject poem kicks off this thread, please take your time to make a considered review.
cheers......
Very good poem.
Deep within it lies a broken punter or L, either waiting for their next good punt or their next good customer.
You have impeccable taste, thanks so much dear fellow.Quote:

But, if I'm ever uncertain, it is only on a very limited number of occasions, and only a little bit. (I think).
Well that's my story and I'm sticking with it....haha. Thanks again for your very kind review.
Is the interest and demand for fine poetry beginning to grow? Could be!
Yes, so when are we going to get it? :shout:Quote:

Yet, there was a caveat which covered the possibility of a growth in interest and demand.
Mr Crash & Burn gave a wonderful review, and this has effectively doubled my vote.
I find myself in something of a quandary - should I take a punt and submit another poem within
the seven days parameter? Or should I seek advice from those with "evenness of the two hands both"
like Wilisno? He/she has grown on me a little bit in recent times, much more reasonable I feel.
Oh dear me....decisions, decisions. What am I to do Sextus?
I'm still deliberating over the exciting news of the increasing level of interest in my fine poetry.
I'll certainly keep you posted with my thoughts, but your advice is always welcome mon ami.
Pending all advice and considerations, I will maintain my commitment to submit a poem once per week.
So the next one is schediuled for fri/sat this week. But that could change, because I do want to keep my readers happy.
I think I'll wait until late Friday or Saturday to submit my next poem, therebyQuote:

to put undue pressure on myself to deliver such top quality material in quick succession.
I don't want to burn out, I've only got a catalogue of 200 or so. haha
Well my interest is more of a steady state than an increasing one, and you may be putting an optimistic spin on things. What broad themes do you think your poetic motivations encompass?Quote:

So yes I'm optimistic, but it's gonna be a relatively slow progression, being sensibly realistic too.
Anyway, like other enthusiasts of the fine art of poetry, I try to cover a wide spectrum of life,
but generally I'm writing about people/women, the spirit/soul, natural flora/fauna, and natural landscape.
I like to think I'm a nice blend of Wordsworth, Tennyson, Kipling, Keats & Blake and a couple of others.
I try to write one poem per day, so I've got plenty to choose from. I'm already looking forward to the next
submission on saturday; something quite different from the last one I think, variety is the spice of life.
Good onya Sextus.
The next poetic submission of creative genius is now scheduled for Saturday. In the interests of variety, it will be "lighter" than the previous one.
I have several love oriented/semi-erotic pieces, one of which will be chosen for your reading pleasure and considered review.
I look forward to your comments on Saturday or soon after.
I'm very much looking forward to the scheduled issue of my next piece of creative poetic literature, some minor fine tuning is underway prior to Saturday's issue.Quote:

Saturday's upcoming poem is a love-oriented/semi-erotic literary piece, you ought to be salivating by now with your fancy already tickled.
Thanks Tomasavic for the intel!Quote:
